https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Type-C-Tool-Free-Enclosure-EC-SNVE/dp/B08RVC6F9Y/

yeah I was considering a NVME and enclosure. In the future, definitely. USD prices/shipping make it a bit too rich for me rn. But when I upgrade my internal SSD, the old one will be going inside an enclosure for sure.

right now Im jumping on that $100 2TB SSD I found from marketplace

Since you're not getting it for any performance specific reasons I'd just go with the biggest one for the cheapest you can get.

Hmm I guess youre right. The $100 one is probably smarter, then. The seller seems reputable, but buying a used item is always riskier than unopened. But the seller IS closer to me, too.

Just to declutter my PC, and also make it easier to move stuff between my PC and Laptop, I've been looking into an external SSD. Nothing fancy needed, just to hold and move games, ROMs, movies, pictures, and Word Docs etc. Basically gonna use it as a giant flash drive. I'd be fine with anything from 500GB to 2TB depending on value

Plan 1) Buy a regular NVME and an enclosure to make my own portable SSD.

Plan 2) 1TB Crucial X9 SSD is $130 on Amazon rn. Up to 1050MB/s, supports 3.2 USB-C

on Marketplace, I came across two interesting options:

Plan 3) 2TB Crucial X9 SSD for $160, complete in box, unopened.

Plan 4) 2TB Samsung T3, USB 3.1, for $100

Both the Marketplace deals seem like steals for 2TB. Planning on that 3rd option for price, and the fact it's unopened. Want some input from people who may know better.

Every character has a spotlight moment in the story mode (Adventure Tour) of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games 2010 for DS, and Waluigi had one of the best ones imo. Great game too btw, highly recommend playing through the story mode of that game, tons of fan service moments.

it's going to be a long time before all the games are available on the ps4/ps5.

would start now imo. not all at once because there's a risk of burnout unless want to do that.


I was picturing more of this. I'm not averse to more traditional JRPGs. Plus it's from like what, 2007? Not old school at all. Are all the games turn-based? Wb this new one?

I asked cuz Im having a debate with my GF. I said lemons and she was like No cuz theyre kinda sweet too

I was like wtf. She conceded bland foods like rice tofu and oatmeal, but said thats a copout smh.

I also said salty things and she was like no salt is a component of savoury so it doesnt count

Yeah its good to see that representation. Very fitting for a Superman show to have it. Glad the team who worked on this is the team we got

Also when Kat Grant was musing over who Superman might be in a relationship with, she mentioned Hank Henshaw and the other bachelor and no one batted an eye at it. What a great show to show your kids to normalize diversity.

The last 5-6 episodes of season 2 was basically a massive season finale arc. It was good! Feels like some good Superman content all around.

I was surprised at how resilient the final threat was. Every time I was like oh this is the grand finale/last hurrah solution that will resolve the plot, it either failed or the final villain had some extra thing up their sleeve. Also, the creators of this show REALLY love anime. So many winks nods and homages, it was great. Season 2 was also a lot more action-packed. I think Id like a mix of both. I feel like a season 3 will have Superman feeling much more established and in-his-element as a competent and confident person as a whole

Kind of overly-kid-friendly but I suppose thats a good thing. Clark and Lois relationship is so cute and Lois in general is one of the best parts of the show. I like the more street-level storytelling they seem to be focusing on. On episode 5 rn.

Im only at the part where Im making my way in the museum where Penguins gang is, which is about a third of the way through the game, if I had to guess.

More impressed with Asylum as of right now. The City is just a conduit to get to and from different areas, which is not all an open world should aspire to be.

While its not an especially hard game, Ice Age Alley is probably the hardest level. There are a few other contenders, though.

Also, the GBA version of the giant bee fight is better. As well as Neckys Revenge.

I played Unlimited recently too. I also felt that most puzzles had one-word solutions, and was pretty disappointing compared to the DS titles.

The prison break level was decent though. And the fun references, winks, and nods in general.

Gotta spoil the ending cuz its one of the only things I know about it

Apparently some scientist invents a machine where you can view the anywhere in the world, in the past, but he or someone else is REALLY against unveiling it to the public etc. eventually they end up using it, and the truth comes out: the reason he didnt want to release it is because you can only view a few seconds ago, anywhere in the world. So this Time Machine looking-glass thing is actually more akin to a global citizen surveillance system.

Looks like a bomber jacket disguised as a windbreaker

thats definitely the feel haha. Super easy and light to just throw on (when I was slightly smaller) like a windbreaker, but still had a bit more of a put-together look of a bomber. Great jacket Im just slightly too broad and probably too tall for it now. Hopefully I can find this exact Weatherman Brand one now, but Members Only seems like a decent option as well.

thanks for the help. Would much rather ask CE than Reddit
